Anyone who says EVH has no feeling n is all technique , shd listen to this , Brilliant , gees he shd bring an album of all this stuff or put it on the next album with dave , this cld have sat well in FAIR WARNING
i luv this !!!!!!!!!!!! , Ed can still do it , i know its a dark time 4 him , but it will pass i think u will find D.Roth will save him , he seems like hes in a happier place now
uh as for that video yes but everyone is aloud to have a few drunken moments lol,as for him inventing the guitar,he dont claim that, but he does claim to have influenced every major guitarist of the 80s and beyond,and its honestly true hell even motley crue stole some stylings from him and we dont even need to start on RATT
Reguardless of his situations, problems, or what ever singer they have, Eddie is still one of the baddest MFKr's alive to play the instrument. He is one of only a few guitarists with a lot of distortion that you can still hear his soul.
Yngwie is an ass, along with Dave Mustaine and Ritchie Blackmore! But none of them are as arrogant or self righteous as Eddie Van Halen. The only other guitarist that would have a shot at his throne of arrogance is Pete Townshend. But he along with Mustaine have mellowed out!
how any one views eddie van halen as an ass is beyond me,i mean every one who has spent time with him says hes down to earth ,sure he was a dick WHEN HE WAS BATTLING CANCER AND ALCOHOLISM,but who wouldnt be?
I'm going by interviews I've read and watched. The guy honestly thinks he invented the electric guitar! As for the the cancer and alcoholism.I'll give him a pass on the cancer thing, although no one knew he had until a year later! But the alcoholism is his own damn fault. You want to give him a pass for it but the dude has drank since he was a kid, THAT'S WHO HE IS.
Search - "Edward Van Halen Behaving Badly at NAMM 2003" on this site. You'll see the guy for what he really is... An angry drunk!
@MrTerrormonkey Ha, I'm getting shit for a comment I made well over a year ago from someone with the name monkey in their screen name... Gotta love Youtube!
This song along with Balutchertherium & Respect The Wind just makes me drool at the music we might had over the last ten years if Eddie had released a few solo albums in the vein of Eric Johnson, Steve Morse and Shawn Lane.
I NEVER understand why he didn't! I don't remember EVH'S exact words, or where I read this at, but he has suggested that one day he and Wolfgang will record an instrumental album. Let us hope so.
im a little disappointed that there was no movie soundtrack... i love the songs by eddie van halen, but unfortunately, i cant find em in good quality anywhere? :S
This song is something I could listen to all night....they should play on the radio or sell it!!!!! going to see them when they come back...!!!! Eddie
? hendrix? freaking easy crap. my friends jam it at my house and i pick my guitar up and i figure it out within seconds. try doing that with eddie when you havent heard the song
LOL..Hendrix was great, sure his licks arent that hard to play but its the feel, the vibrato and the inflections that you cant cop. anyone can draw a face, but will it look like bart simpson or the mona lisa. BTW EVH rules.
yeah. people argue that hendrix created certain stuff. no he did not. he didnt claim it and eddie came up with the two handed hammerons. noone else hendrix never played two handed hammerons. Eddie basically did everything and made it sound 100 times better. lol
hey dude, i think today r hundreds of better guitarists out there in the world .. but to writea song is the art ..hendrix was a better songwriter than van halen ever could be;)
nobody can judge that idea that whos a better songwriter, obviously they are a two different wavelengths, dont get me wrong i like hendrix, but nobody has touched my soul with music more than eddie. because eddie dont care. everyone just like the fact that hendrix is lefthanded and couldnt buy one so he flipped it over :O
there are also a couple of other reasons for the hendrix craze- he was black(so black guitarist think they can relate),he did drugs (so druggies use him as an icon) and he died early,which always rockets a musician to fame
no eddie combined the humbucker on a strat style body first, and tapping yes, what you all call tapping isnt tapping, and eddie came up with his own style of hammerons
the first man to combine a whammy bar and a humbucker pickup on one guitar, the man who invented tapping, the first person to make crazy sounds with harmonics, the man who revolutionised guitar tone and effects and compleatly changed how people played the guitar. and what is he doing now, making music for porn, how the fuck could you let yourself go so low eddie.
Sorry have to post again but this is too good :D I have read other comments on the shorter versions, but even if it's not EVH at his best, it's still pretty freaky intrigueing when you hear the full 5 min vers :)
The Frankenstrat should be the only guitar he plays. BAddest fuckin tone of any guitar in the world.

i absolutely LOVE the two songs from Sacred Sin. Both Catherine, and Rise are amazing songs.
These two songs proved that, even though he was a raging alcoholic at the time, he is STILL Eddie Van Halen.
Amazing amazing tunes.
My favourite part about this video: he is playing Frankie. Such a badass guitar.

It's called tapping, and hendrix died before eddie's career really took off. Hendrix was everyone's inspiration at that time. Respect the name.

study your guitar. tapping is when you tap 12 frets above a note and it chimes. what you call tapping is called hamerons
